Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the gluten-free all-purpose flour blend, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Add the eggs, almond milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the bowl. Use a whisk or a handheld mixer to combine until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
Carefully pour in the boiling water, a little at a time, while stirring. The batter will become thin, but this is normal.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared baking dish.
Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool completely in the baking dish before slicing and serving.
Optional: Dust the cooled cake with powdered sugar or top with your favorite gluten-free frosting for extra flavor.
